Welcome to Republic City!

It was a bright and sunny normal day in Republic City. Children were playing, spirits were chirping about, and everything was going along like normal. Well at least that's what everyone seemed to think. That is until so many people seemed to be appearing out of nowhere. For some reason Republic City seemed to be more lively and the crowds bigger.

The spirits have grown restless as if something important was about to change, and to try to fix that change, the spirits with their big long tree like limbs dragged people into the world left and right. Even the vines covering Republic City seemed to help. Although the spirits had the best intentions in mind, some people were more affected by the grab than others. There's talk that people in this city don't even know what this place is. People who have never heard of the words "bender" or "non-bender."

Welcome to Republic City! And to those who already live here: Happy Saturday. Please make yourselves at home and don't mind a little spirit gunk. It's mostly harmless. Go enjoy yourself a classic mover. Maybe you're the athletic type. If that's the case, come watch a few Pro-bending matches or form your own team. Just watch out for any Satomobiles. They can be deadly no matter how pretty the driver is.

Please remember to enjoy your stay and don't cause too much trouble. The Republic City Police don't need more riffraff to take care of. And don't stray too far. To make the the peace is kept, there's a huge spirit barrier around the perimeter of the city. It seems pretty strong, but it won't be able to last forever. Still, it's worrying. Radio signals and telegraphs don't seem to be getting past it.

Nothing like this.

[Meaning people don't just pop out of nowhere. Republic City had more than its share of refugees, but none who had appeared her so suddenly.]

People are pouring in from the Earth Kingdom territories after the fall of the queen, but we've never had people just appearing out of nowhere.

[Asami speaks as she folds blankets for the care packages.]

[ That is some crucial bit of information on this world´s politics right there, but George is more interested in the recent situation.
He had assumed that the locals had something to do with what happened to him, maybe even summoned people regularly... But they simply seemed just as confused as everyone else.
If they weren´t all lying there was a third force at work here, stronger than all of them. ]


Then your quick reaction to help these abduction victims out is especially admirable.

Do you have any idea on what might have caused this unknown phenomenon, Miss...?

Asami Sato.

[Asami smooths her skirt as she stands to shake his hand.]

I wish I could tell you more, but chances are high that it has to do with the spirits. There have been a lot of things going on that we couldn't have had any way of predicting, lately.

George Ace. Pleasure to meet you.

[ He shakes her hand firmly. It doesn't sit well with him to have to be all humble and polite around people, but he's well-aware that he's a nobody in this world - as of now. ]

So there is no agency at all to keep spirit actions in check? If they cooexist with humans here, that seems like a necessary institution.

[ Not that he... knows what a spirit is in this place, he just rolls with the word for now. ]

Not as of now. We're just starting to learn how to live with them, ourselves. They haven't exactly been among us very long.

[Asami's handshake is also firm, and she sits back in her chair once again to continue folding blankets.]

The vines actually grew right into the president's office.

[Is that a small hint of amusement in Asami's voice? Probably.]
